Well, I didn't read all the posts before replying to your first post, so I guess I'm equally at fault. ;) Anyway, you need to upgrade ALL your files. There are three reasons, aside from the obvious: 1) The handling of long command lines changed from v2.00 to v2.01, and all programs built with v2.00 must be recompiled with v2.01 to utilize them. 2) The Win95 long filename handling improved from v2.00 to v2.01, and old programs may break in strange ways. 3) Miscellaneous library code changes and bugfixes mean that old programs may interact improperly with new ones in other ways besides the above. All of the files on SimTel have been updated to go along with v2.01, so you just need to find and download the latest versions of everything you already have. -- John M.
